so yeah, i saw MWS in concert last night....

sooooooooooooooooo good!!

my momma and I are big fans, so I took her for her birthday when he was in st. cloud last night. it was such a fun night and I just love his voice, and he is so handsome! darn it, yes he's married, and he's 58, but certainly doesn't look like it. kinda reminds me of the crush I have a on Captain Von Trapp (Christopher Plumber from Sound of Music!) they are both handsome old men and not Christopher Plumber now, but what he looked like in 1965!! and MWS teeth are so bright, I could see them from how far back we are.

I forgot that he wrote a song for the girl who died professing her faith in the Littleton Colorado school shooting and he told us he couldn't figure out an ending, so he reached out to her parents and asked if it would be okay if the song ended with bag pipes, and they said that was her favorite instrument. I had full on tears.

It really made me think if I were in that situation, what would I say? I would love to say that I would proclaim to love Jesus, but how scary to actually have a gun pointing at your head with that kind of question. wow.

how fitting that Easter is next Sunday, when we see Jesus suffer the most horrible death for me, and you, and everybody.

Hope you all have a great Easter celebrating this incredible gift.
